I am looking for information on the LeBlanc family in Gaspe. Would you be able to direct me to who I could contact? I have been looking for months and can’t seem to find anything. I have tried ancestry free but nothing. Thank you so much for any information you can provide me with.

Hi Ben - Sorry for the late delay (Polar Vortex). I have my branch of the ancestors or family tree is from the son of Daniel, Andre, down through Claude-Andre, Joseph x 3, Pierre, etc., if you are keeping the general list connections. Thanks and good luck. I enjoyed your commentary on Daniel very much.

Happy to share my genealogy notes if they are of any interest. Good luck and stay warm Best regards, Len Le Blanc, Bangkok, Thailand

Hi Adam, I recall an email from you back in Mar 2021. I think you may be the first person to contact me that was actually in the same line. Very cool. Have you canvassed your living relatives for stories? Did you ever try to find the grave sites of Marin & Maurice? I am still looking for them. Word has it, they might be over by Church Point and not St Joseph’s cemetery.

Hi Ben, I found your site while researching my family tree. Our common path connects at Marin Leblanc (or possibly Luc) and diverges from there. Your info says that the lineage goes "Marin -> Luc -> Leande"r. I have it as "Marin -> Leander Joseph". I suspect I have something connected incorrectly in ancestry.com and i'm going to look to fix that. Assuming your lineage is true my your great grand-father would be brothers with my 3rd great-grand-father
About me, I grew up in Weymouth, Nova Scotia and now reside in Ontario. Most of my family is still in the Weymouth, Plympton, Digby area. I would love to connect with you about our shared family roots.

I recently picked up the genealogy torch from my mother (this past weekend actually) I found your page while searching for information on LeBlanc. I grew up in Weymouth, Nova Scotia and see some of your relatives are from around there as well. We share a common ancestor in Marin LeBlanc. Your side goes down his son Maurice's side and mine went down the Remy Mande (Leander) side. Alas, it seems you hit the same roadblock with Daniel as I did :) I'm fairly new to the genealogy stuff - if you've got any tips/pointers for me I'd appreciate the connection.

Hi Ben, Hopefully this finds you well. Dropped in to visit your website, it is very interesting, I like the way you explained the coat of Arms issue, I agree with you.
I was born in Moncton NB my ancestors are mostly from the Memramcook, Fox Creek and Saint Anselme NB area. My father George was in the Army served overseas during WW2 and survived two of his brothers served in the Navy during WW2 and survived. I joined the RC Signals in 1953 got out in 1969, during my service had one United Nations Peacekeeping Mission in the Congo in 1962.
My branch in the LeBlanc tree is as follows:
Daniel, Andre, Claude Andre, Joseph Andre, Firmin, Michel, Charles “Charlitte” Theophile, Wilfred T (my Grandfather) and father George. My mother was a Doiron from Shediac NB. Take care, keep safe and healthy, Have a great day, Fred LeB, Fredericton NB

Sorry it's taken so long for me to get back to you. I'm the one who told you about my LeBlanc that fought in the American Civil War and you were surprised that there had been LeBlancs who fought in the war. I'm not sure, but if my LeBlanc fought for the South, he may be one of these 2. I'm attaching 2 files that I got from Fold3.com. Of the 2, 1 enlisted in Tennessee, the other in Assumption Parish, Louisiana. My Louis LeBlanc was probably born in Canada. Don't know how he may have relocated to Louisiana. I've only looked for Louis LeBlanc; there must have been more, and I only found these 2 on "Fold3". There could have been more.

Thanks for your reply, Ben. I'm not an advanced genealogist, and I wish our local society had a workshop on Canadian records and what's available. But our county library has one of the best history and genealogy sections in the Midwest. I went there Friday and met with one of their genealogists about Louis Leon LeBlanc. He pointed out something that I had missed. In our 1880 census, there was a special enumeration of Civil War veterans, I found his name there, but didn't/couldn't read a note that was very pale. The genealogist said "conf" which we can take to mean my ancestor fought on the Confederate side. I knew there was a Louis LeBlanc who fought for the South, but I ignored him. I believe I need to work on this hint. My Louis Leon in the census here in St. Louis said he was born in Canada, but the one who was a Confederate joined in New Orleans. I find it hard to reason it in my mind that a LeBlanc, who should have known his history, would fight for the South, but there we are. I admit when I read of the New Brunswick LeBlanc's story I was excited to think that this was our history. I still want it to be part of my family's story. Thank you for your suggestions. I will start there and continue the search.

Hi Mary Lee, I'm afraid I don't have any experience with Genealogical researchers myself and cannot suggest anyone in particular to you. Have you visited online, the Library and Archives Canada? https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/genealogy/Pages/introduction.aspx.
they used to maintain a list of persons willing to perform genealogical research here in Ottawa, where they would have physical access to an impressive amount of records. What research have you done on your own? Archives Canada has census data online for free,
http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/census/Pages/census.aspx.
You need only to go back a few generations to start linking up with data in those
records. The newest census available to the public is 1921.
Unless you don't have the time to do the research on your own, I would check there before paying someone. What was your great Grandfathers name?

I felt it would be worth contacted you again, this time for your opinion. First, your suggestion about the marriage records having parent's names. The marriage was performed by a Justice of the Peace. The only record is the one he filed with the city of St. Louis. No extra info. I'm in the process of contacting professional genealogists in Canada. Would you recommend anyone? Especially as it concerns LeBlanc's. Thank you.

Hello Mary, Thank you for stopping by. DNA tracing is fascinating and often helps to solidify a family's history and New Brunswick of curse has a ton of LeBlanc's, most of them originating from Nova Scotia during the great expulsion of 1755. I would be careful with the links you may find in Ancestry, I find that a lot of the data contained there is highly suspect and needs collaboration with other sources.
Many users link their trees indiscriminately without fact checking. The LeBlanc family, however well documented, still has many broken links. I would not write the Raphael off but keep it on the side, it may prove to be fruitful. A marriage record of your Grandfather may be available and might provide his father's name, Good Luck, Ben
06 Jul 2019 - Mary Lee Chivetta:
My mother was a LeBlanc. Her great grandfather landed in St. Louis, Missouri from Canada. He married in 1870 or so and had 6 children. DNA puts me squarely in New Brunswick with LeBlanc matches. One tree on Ancestry connects him to Raphael LeBlanc with no sources. Can I get your opinion? Regards, Mary Lee

Just wanted to reach out. I have been doing some research trying to find a LeBlanc Coat of Arms and I came across your webpage. I am looking for a coat of arms that may be specifically related to the LeBlanc family who settled in Louisiana after deportation. Anyway my web browsing brought me to your site and I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed looking around your site and getting to know a little more about my family heritage!!! I am 51 and I live in Covington Louisiana. My father and his father (both born in New Orleans) were both named Stanley Emile LeBlanc, and you can imagine my surprise when I saw that your dad was named Emile as well. Its a small world!!!! Have a great day cousin!!!

I'm a descendant of Daniel LeBlanc, born in Toronto in 1963. My father, Julian LeBlanc, was born 11 March 1930 in Sydney, NS. There are several gaps in my knowledge of the family genealogy that I'd like to fill. Here's a bit of what I know:
Charles LeBlanc, my father's oldest brother, served with the RCNVR during WW2 aboard HMCS Thetford Mines.
Sister Catherine LeBlanc, an elder sister of my father, passed away c. 2010 at a convent in Sydney.
Plus a multitude of first cousins, most of whom still reside in Cape Breton.
Cheers, JPL
